Portland, OR — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP 97202, on Portland's east side, households earn a median of $104,971, with per-capita income at $62,899. Homes here carry a median value of $700,800, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.96% translates into a substantial annual bill for owners. Oregon has no state or local sales tax, so the combined rate sits at 0.00%, meaning everyday purchases aren't taxed and more of each paycheck stays with the household. The trade-off is that property taxes do the heavy lifting for local services, which matters if you own rather than rent in this part of Portland.
